New York Times: Q&A with Jon Huntsman

So if you’re running for president in 2016, you probably have to start laying the groundwork now, right?
Can you imagine we’re even talking about this? It’s mind-numbing that within 24 hours, people want to start talking about 2016.

I read that Ann Romney did not take the loss well. Obviously, your campaign didn’t last as long, but was your family crushed?
They were down for a couple of days and a little angry for a while, but as they reflect on it, they loved every minute of it. Presidential campaigns result in one of two outcomes. It divides the family, sometimes irreparably or it makes you a whole lot closer. It made our family a whole lot closer.
